Perez Hilton Tweets: ‘will.i.am beat me up”
UPDATE: Polo Molina, the manager of the Black Eye Peas, has turned himself in to Toronto Police on allegations he blacked celebrity blogger Perez Hilton’s eye, the Associated Press reported just before noon on Monday, June 22.
Being an opinionated loud-mouth apparently got Perez Hilton a smacked down.
In a very strange turn, the celebrity blogger used the social networking site Twitter to announce that he had been assaulted by Black Eye Peas rapper will.i.am.
“I was assaulted by Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke,” Hilton wrote at about 3 a.m. Monday, June 22.
will.i.am in a response video, said that Hilton called him the F-word, a derogatory term used to offend gay people, at an after party in Toronto following the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards.
In the video, will.i.am says he had confronted Hilton about Hilton’s nasty comments earlier that night to Black Eye Peas singer Fergie.
Hilton apparently told Fergie he didn’t like her music at an earlier after party.
“(Hilton) really disrespects her. He like digs in and just like hurts her feelings,” Will.I.Am says in the video. “It is one thing to tell your opinion and it is another thing to go overboard and be blatantly rude.”
At that second after party, will.i.am says he confronted Hilton about being rude to members of his group. An argument broke out.
“He said ‘that was very f**ed of you for coming at me like that’,” will.i.am says in the video, adding that the Hilton, who is gay, then called him the f-word.
Will.I.Am says fans went after Hilton.
“Tonight was a good night, but it ended kind of crazy,” will.i.am says. “On my way to London.”
Hilton apparently has a different version of the story.
“I spoke to my lawyer. I really need to talk to the authorities. Please come to the SoHo Met Hotel. Have called the police. Need them here,” he wrote an hour after the Twitter post about the alleged assault.
The Toronto police arrived a short time late, “Thank you. Please stop calling them,” Hilton tweeted.
“Thank u all from the bottom of my heart for ur concern. The police are investigating the assault now. I did the right thing by reporting it,” he wrote even later.

I see all these comments about how hitting is wrong, or Hilton deserved. But I have a question…What kind of moron can not call for the police himself? He has his Twitter friends call for him? Can you imagine the rush of phone calls that could have been sent in because this idiot is helpless as to how to use a f**king phone other than for Tweets?By Brandon
